I’m not usually one to blog about celebrity news on the fact that most of the times I do not care. I have always been a hardcore Michael Jackson fan, despite the negative publicity.
In the album, “Blood on the Dance Floor” from 1997, Jackson mentions something that has the media and the authorities prying even deeper into his well-hidden personal life. You be the judge. The lyrics are dark, and even a bit eerie:
Relax
This won’t hurt you
Before I put it in
Close your eyes and count to ten
Don’t cry
I won’t convert you
There’s no need to dismay
Close your eyes and drift awayDemerol
Demerol
Oh God he’s taking Demerol
Demerol
Demerol
Oh God he’s taking DemerolHe’s tried
Hard to convince her
To be over what he had
Today he wants it twice as bad
Don’t cry
I won’t resent you
Yesterday you had his trust
Today he’s taking twice as muchDemerol
Demerol
Oh God he’s taking Demerol
Hee-hee-hee
Demerol
Demerol
Oh my Oh God it’s Demerol
Hee
Oooh
He mentions Demerol, a drug that he was taking in his final days, and could be his cause of death. Could this mean that he was taking Demerol back in 1997? For now, the answer is unclear. Listen to the song with lyrics here.

i know he was taking demerol from the pepesi accident but i thought he stopped after he went to rehab at the ened of 1993…maybe he wrote this song years before or maybe he was still taking it..either way this is so sad i wish he had gotten more help. there is NO reason for him not to be here, whoever enabled him and any stupid doctors involved need to be prosecuted.
i’m a little nervous about this tocicology report i wonder hwat was in his system
